I got my oil change at Walmart and they didn't turn off the reminder. I tried following the instructions a few times and eventually just stopped bothering. I know when I need to change my oil and I know when it's time for another yearly maintenance visit.
When the *warning* light goes on, I bring it to the dealer as soon as possible (within hours or - I bring the car home and don't drive it again until I'm driving it to the dealer).

It has everything to do with it. Just cause you had you’re oil changed don’t mean they done it right? Most owners don’t even know where the dip stick is, let alone how to properly check level. You want to follow up on any maintenance done, especially at dealership’s.
